gave to the President Of the United States.
The occasion upon which this interesting
performance took place was tho reception
rendered the general public by President
cleveland this morning. The scene was
the meeting room Of the Commissioners of
the public buildinga. Tho dramatio mar.
sonae were President Cleveland and
red'haired, well-dressed woman OF middle
age, the pleasant expression OF whose re-
nned features wao marred by chin
whose exaggerated squarenesa indicated
her determination OF character. Preai-
dent Cleveland stood with his hack
towards the west wall OF the room where
was hung the large framed pictures of the
buildings under a canopy Of bunting bear
ing the national colors. On either aide of
him stood Secretary Of State Bsyard and
Secretary Of the Treasury Fairchild, and

IN BANCO-BEFORE JUDD, c. J., MCULLY,
PRESTON AND BICKERToN, Us.
In the matter of the application OF a.
c.. Smith on behalf of Tam Fook for a
writ of habeas corpus. Appeal from the
decision of Mr.. Justice Bickerton. The
opinion of the Court by Mr.. Justice
Preston was read On oath August last
Mr.. Justice Bickerton issued a writ OF
habeas corpus in this case. The Mar
shall on the return day brought the
prisoner into Court and filed return to
the effect that the prisoner was lawfully
detained by virtue of six mittimuses.
It was contended that the several SEN
fences had expired by diffusion of time,
the several sentences found that such
was not the case. The Court now ruled
that the appeal must be allowed. 1t
was noticed that some of the sentences
and were in the alternative. This alone
would be sufficient to entitle the prisoner
to his discharge. If it is intended that
sentences should be cumulative it should
be so stated. Otherwise they are con-
current. Prisoner was discharged. The
decision was signed by Justices Nc
Gully, Preston and Bickerton.
The King VS.. Akana. Opinion of the
Court by the Chief Justice was read.
This was an appeal from the District
Court of Eva on point of law. De-
PENDANT was charged with selling liquor
without a license. The position taken
by defendants counsel is that the
charge alleged a joint sale to two per-
sons and the evidence discloses two sepa-
rate sales, and that prisoners therefore
entitled to his discharge, there being no
evidence OF a joint sale. This Court is
OF opinion that this position is untena-
BILE. The charge as made does not nee
essarily imply that the sale was made to
two men jointly. The essence of the Of
tense is the sale without license, and
whether the liquor was sold to one, or
to two, or to any number of persons is of
no consequence, provided the fact of the
sale was established. The appeal was
dismissed. A. P. Peterson for the Crown,
Smith & Kinney for defendants.
Makalei, ct al vs.. Himeni. Opinion
of the Court by Mr.. Justice McCully was
read. This was appeal from the de-
cision OF Mr.. Justice Preston. After ex-
planning the law on the points raised,
the Court ruled that the appeal cannot
be entertained. Smith & Kinney for
plaintiff, NJ Thompson for defendant.
O. Unna VS.. c. Brown. The decision
of the Chief Justice was confirmed.

Rev.LA Crnzan-

The Rev. j. A. Cruzan, formerly of
Honolulu, has accepted the pastorate of
the Third Congregational Church of San
Francisco, and on October 10th preached
his inaugural sermon from the theme,
'"The Ideal Church = How can it be
realized" The San Francisco "Chroni-
cle' has the following in it's issue of
October 18th, noticing Mr.. Cruzan's
first sermon: The new incumbent of
the Third Congregational Church
preached his inaugural sermon yester-
day morning to a large and very atten-
tive audience. The new pastor is very
unclerical in appearance, has a clearly
shaver face, except large mustache,
is nearly six feet in height and re-
sembles a successful lawyer or a shrewd
business man much more than he does
the typical minister And in his man
ner of conducting the services and the
delivery of the sermon, the pointed, di
rect manner OF the Bar instead of the
ordinary pulpit manner is constantly
suggested. While he uses notes in de-
livering his sermon, he is not confined
to them, and does not read but talks to
his audience in a free, unconstrained,
familiar way
The church was very tastefully deco
rated, the pulpit platform, communion
table and railing of the organ loft being
loaded with flowers and trailing-vines.
The members of the church pressed for
ward at the close of the service to meet
and greet their new pastor.

Guiding almost the entire consumption
of raw sugar and the production OF re-
fined sugar in the United States.
The combination represents capital
of $50, 100000, apportioned to the differ
ent refneries on an equitable basis Tor a
division OF profits.
The only sugar refineries IN the
United States not included in the trust
or combination are two refineries in
Philadelphia, one in Boston, three small
refineries in New Orleans, one in St.
Louis, which is not running, and two
in San Francisco. The committee has
full control of the production of refined
sugar, so that it can always be regulated
by the demand by running full or clos
ing, or partially closing, any refinery,
and will have no difficulty in bringing
the prices of refined sugar to paying
basis, as compared with the market
price of raw sugar.
Already the price of granrilated sugar
has gone up peg on the report of the
formation of this trust.
THE WESTERN BEET SUGAR COMPANY.
The Western Beet Sugar Company
have incorporated for the purpose of
manufacturing, from beet and other ma
terials, sugars and such other articles as
are usually manufactured in connection
herewith The directors are Edward B.
Pond, James B. Stetson, Louis Sluss, NJ.
2. Jones, John L. Roster, Meyer Ehr-
man and Claus Spreckels. The capital
stock is 100000, divided into 5000
shares, of which Claus Spreckels has
subscribed for q, 400 shares.
Early this week meeting will be held
OF the Board of Directors of the Western
Beet Sugar Company, of which Mr..
Claus Spreckels is the moving spirit. It
is expected that one evaporating plant
will be in operation by next fall. About
100 carloads of machinery altogether
will be brought over the Rockies, and it
is expected that about 5 900 tons of raw
sugar will be produced the first season.
Afterward, with additional plant and in
creased production, it is calculated that
$4,000 tons will be produced annually.
The raw sugar will be refined at the
Potrero, and it is expected that the
product of the State will serve to keep
the refinery there running the year
round. Experiments now being made
at the refinery with beets grown this
season from seeds distributed by Mr..
Spreckels are entirely satisfactory, show
ing higher percentage than is obtained
from the beets grown in Germany and
Belgium. Estimates also show that
thirty tons of beets can be grown to the
acre, which will fetch 1920 in the mar
